Blas,

Did not boil out as much water the last race. I think that it was due to the higher pressure radiator cap. I am thinking that the increased temp for the coolant was secondary to the engine running on the lean side, and we finally got all of the air bled out of the system. I am going to put in the next size larger jets and then test that theory at home. I have a couple of weeks until Pitt race. Also am going to see what I can do about getting better ducting to the brake rotors as there were times when the brakes would fade some and then I would have to start braking early. A course like Mid Ohio is tougher on brakes as you are hitting the brakes almost every 20 seconds with the only long pause on the back straight.

Speaking of the back straight, it seemed to get shorter with the new engine.
